Class 16
June 2022 update
This month Class 16 have been involved in organising their own Formal! We had business meetings in the Belmont Hotel, organised menu choices, tickets, decorations, DJ playlists and danced the night away! The pictures speak for themselves everyone had a fantastic night!
We had a brilliant end of year trip to the beach - we splashed in the sea, played games on the sand, built sandcastles and relaxed in the sun as we waited for our chippy lunch...a perfect day to end a brilliant year! Have a great summer everyone!
May 2022 update
Class 16 are definitely on the "wind-up" instead of the "wind-down" at the moment! We have enjoyed joining Class 15 and Leavers to complete some collaborative Outdoor Learning once a week. We have been completing problem solving challenges and painting the planters outside. We have also been busy finishing our IEP projects, learning new ICT skills, and completing Drama and Sensory Music sessions with Rebecca. The highlight of May has definitely been our trip to Tannaghmore Gardens, we loved the trip that much we didn't want to go on the bus back to school! We are currently busy planning our school formal with Leavers and we are so excited for the big night in June!
April 2022 update
Class 16 have thoroughly deserved their Easter break this term! We have been very busy setting up our own class tuckshop, creating some lovely Young Enterprise Easter items, working hard on our new IEP targets and more recently, we won the school's Showstopper challenge with our "under the ground" Alice and Wonderland theme. Looking forward to a busy Term 3, have a lovely Easter everyone!
March 2022 update
World Book Day, Pancake Tuesday, new IEP targets, a trip to Tollymore, Prince's Trust accreditation, March plank challenge, Cookery, OCR units, organising a donation appeal for Ukraine and two birthdays in between! March was jam packed for the pupils in Class 16 but as you can see from the photos they have been learning and excelling in their skills. We are excited for Easter and we are working hard on our Young Enterprise projects - we can't wait to see how much we can learn through our new IEP targets in April!
February 2022 update
February has been a busy month for Class 16! We have celebrated two birthdays, Valentines Day, Safer internet day and even a snow day! We have worked hard to get a Prince's Trust unit completed, start our OCR Literacy unit, enjoyed desk drumming sessions and we even started planning our Easter Young Enterprise project. The staff in class 16 continue to be amazed at how the pupils are continuing to grow in independence around the classroom and as you can see from the pictures, they are very proud of themselves!
January 2022 update
Class 16 have come back after Christmas and have got straight back to business! January has seen our pupils achieve their assessments for their Numeracy OCR accreditations, as well as continuing to work hard at their independent cookery. The pupils in Class 16 have shown amazing improvements in their levels of confidence and independence so far this year and they continue to impress staff with their new skills. We throughly enjoyed Wellbeing week at the start of January and have started an exciting new "Colour" topic. All systems go for 2022!
December 2021 update
Class 16 can’t believe it’s nearly the end of Term 1! We have been working hard this month making wooden Snowmen, Reindeer and decorations for the Christmas tree for the Christmas Craic-er event. Class 16 were also part of the Marketing team for the Christmas Craic-er, organising online tickets, arranging time slots for families and advertising the event. We have also enjoyed taking part in the Festive Fridays in school, making Christmas Cookery and working hard with our IEP targets.
Let’s hope Term 2 is as successful as Term 1! We would like to. Wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
November 2021 update
Another month of achievements for Class 16! We have started our IEP targets with great success, completed autumn art and have been working our way through our accreditation projects. Work has also well and truly begun for our Christmas Young Enterprise project - the pupils have been working hard on planning, budgeting and making the items to sell at the "Christmas Craic-er" event in December. Pupils have been continually improving on their independence skills and are growing in confidence every week! Our class are also part of the marketing team for this event and have been learning about different ways to communicate and advertise... so keep your eyes peeled!
October 2021 update
Class 16 would like to say a huge thank you to everyone who supported the sales of their Halloween Young Enterprise project. Over the last few weeks they have been busy bees introducing themselves to Young Enterprise for the first time, while also developing many skills including their teamwork, problem solving and organisational skills. All items completely sold out and the project made £100. We can’t wait to start our Christmas project already!
